    I dropped seven prescription drugs I was supposed to be on for life. This included depression medication I was on for more than twenty years. How did I do it? In a nutshell all of these things helped. 1. Developing my relationship with God, (daily worship, bible meditation (outloud) and prayer. Secondly, becoming emotionally healthy and learning to attract healthy friends into my life. Sometimes we are emotionally unhealthy and dont even know it. Thirdly, stopped watching TV and avoided anything that would fill my mind with negativity. This includes negative people. And lastly, I cut out processed foods and processed sugar eleven years ago. This is a game changer! What we eat is so important, unfortunately few people are willing to let go addictive drugs called sugar, salt, processed oil and more. Lost forty pounds to boot! Eleven year anniversary in 2024!

    Not to detract from what Dr James Marcum has mentioned. But i find this verse very encouraging and full of hope. When I re-enter another bout of depression due to the pace of this life. *Isaiah 40 31*
    But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary,
    they will walk and not be faint.

    I was so lost several years ago and in 2020 I felt like I lost everything that mattered to me. Suffered from anxiety. But I met Jesus and found myself at the foot of the cross. He turned my life around and restored me. My identity is in Christ and I now have peace beyond understanding. Hope anyone going through this right now will come to Him. Jesus said, " Come to me all who are weary and burdened and I will give you rest to your souls. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me for I am gentle and humble in heart. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light."

    Depression is a demon. Root causes include discouragement, deep grief, loss, unforgiveness and/or hope deferred. Seek the Lord, press in, to find the root.

    God also gave the animals for us to eat after the flood.............turkey contains lots of tryptophan.......
    Not in favor of plant based diets - agree with supplementing with Vit D. Low carb is extremely beneficial.
    Also, scripture tells us to 'take our thoughts captive' and this is key to recovering from depression.

    Thank you for this. Just a note on Omega 3. It’s specifically high doses (1g-3g per day) of EPA needed to help depression. Plant sources like walnuts and linseeds are rich in ALA only so they won’t yield that. Sardines, pilchards and Mackerel and salmon are rich sources or else supplementation.

    1) Walk with God: listen, study the Bible, pray, express your deepest thoughts/desire, understand that God's will for you may include depression but His ways are ultimately for your good
    2) Cling to the promises in the word: memorize and internalize
    3) Find loyal supportive friends, maybe a good therapist
    4) Plant based diet: Increases serotonin, vitamin D, alpha 3 omega acids
    5) Physical movement/activity: outside for fresh air/sunlight
